I ate prunes all day, and nothing hapopened. i mentioed my problem to my graet grandma, who made me some ocra- a green vegetable, sometimes found in gumbo, or eaten fried in the south. She just boiled some ocra, I ate a few pieces,and it's been a life saver!!! I always have a bag of ocra in the feezer for when i need it. Works every time, and fast!

I have found fiber tablets to be very useful. They are not a laxative, just natural fiber in chewable tablet form. I have 2 every night before bed, and find they keep me regular. Upping your fluid intake and eating planty of fruits and veggies helps, too. Also - try a bowl of raisin bran cereal every morning.
